Common Challenges
An effective affordable housing program is the product of careful planning and strategizing. Identifying key players, cultivating allies, and "selling" the project helps to accomplish your goals. Our experience working with legal issues, local government, and working in both the for-profit and non-profit sectors in a variety of capacities have honed our skills as a consultant team. By focusing on relationships, we get results.
